Great weekend!

Monday, January 14, 2013

I really enjoyed my weekend. Spent almost all of it with Gary and this whole relationship thing is really something, isn't it? I have never been in a relationship where someone REALLY wanted me to talk about my thoughts and feelings - it's scary but wonderful all at the same time. I feel myself getting closer to him as I let my guard down (which also scares the hell out of me, but also feels like such a ... relief). More to come..

Had practice with IronSymphony yesterday. It went really great. We recently played at an open mic and apparently "THE" metal guy in Raleigh was there and heard us - AND gave us a THUMBS UP! So we may get to play at a big metal fest that he does every year. Woot! We also have another lead on a keyboard player that looks really promising, so keep your fingers crossed AGAIN on that one. Tonight I have practice with the Trophy Husbands and I'm really excited. It started out that I would do lead on "a couple of songs" and do backup - but they have gotten really excited about my voice and sending me TONS of songs to learn. I worked on TEN new ones just this week! I'll also be playing acoustic guitar and some keyboards, so it's quite the gig! If you're in the Raleigh area, we're playing at Chevy Ale House in Apex on February 1 at 9:30. That will be my debut with the band - AND will also be the first time that Gary has seen me perform. Can't wait!!
